4 days

My long-awaited sprint triathlon is just 4 days away. Can you believe it?

Today I went to pick up my packet for the race on Sunday. I am excited. I have done my training. I stuck to it, even when I was worn out and beyond tired. I had a few weeks where I really daily struggled to keep to my training for no other reason than I was tired. Yet, here I am days away. Last year when I ran my first half marathon, I remember being nervous. Of course, 13.1 miles is a big feet to take on. I was nervous about completing the race, what I would feel like and running the whole race. All of the above was accomplished. I notice this time around I am just excited. Don’t get me wrong, there is nervousness mixed in but it’s an excited nervous. I look forward to that morning, to being in the water, making my transitions, tackling the hills on the bike ride and finishing strong in my run. I know I can do this. I don’t know necessarily how I will feel through it all but I’ve done my homework. Now it is time for me to enjoy it.
